Mastering MACD: The Best Settings & Strategies for Profitable Swing Trading
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 чер 2024
- Hey there! In today’s video, we're gonna talk about the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) - a super popular trading indicator that lots of traders use. But before we dive into MACD, we gotta first understand how other technical indicators like moving averages or the exponential moving average work and the issues that come with using them while trading.
Once we've got that down, we can move onto the MACD indicator. Basically, the MACD is based on two moving averages - a fast one and a slow one - and it plots the difference between the two on a chart. Traders use this info to spot trends, shifts in momentum, and even potential buy or sell signals.
So, how do you use the MACD indicator? Well, one way is to look for crossovers between the MACD line and the signal line. If the MACD line crosses above the signal line, that's a bullish trend, while a crossover below the signal line could be a bearish trend.
Another way to use the MACD is to look for divergences between the MACD line and the price action of an asset. For example, if an asset's price is going up but the MACD is going down, that could mean a trend reversal. Let us know in the comments if you wanna learn more about MACD divergence and how to use it!
Of course, it's important to remember that the MACD isn't foolproof. You should always use it alongside other forms of analysis to make smart trading decisions.
So, if you wanna get better at trading and have an ace up your sleeve, you should totally grab your coffee to master trading the MACD indicator! It's a sweet tool that can help you spot trend reversals and signals for buying and selling. Trust me, it's super useful and can definitely help you make better trading decisions.

MACD works really well on 3 minute charts, i use it with mean reversion model
great explanation and editing
Thanks!
Thank you the knowledge is very helpful for beginners like me
I use it for intraday trading to gauge trend direction. Also get a sense of how long the trend will last depending on how far apart the lines are.
You have done magnificent job weldon ,i am now understanding forex as the days goes by thank you si❤!
Fantabulous, thank you very much Sir for this enlightenment
Nice info 👍

@@PrateekSinghLearnApp can you do a video on will chatgpt help for trading?
Nice learn to help direction of market....👍
Thank you :)
In the last example where you mentioned that MACD didnt work, MACD actually worked by giving a signal much earlier when it moves below 0 before the crossover, which means that the market will go bearish.
Thank you
really nice editing
Thanks will pass it on to the team
MACD can also be used an exit signal
Good examples
Thank you!
My experience is(For early reversal trading entry)---If 3 different settings of MACD(say macd 3,10,9--macd 6,13,9--macd 12,26,9) show that momentum on all 3 settings has reversed(as evidenced by heights of histograms) say on 15 minute charts,THEN VERY HIGH CHANCE THAT TREND HAS INDEED REVERSED.Your comments/wisdom is invited.
You are a wonderful teacher. Well-explained videos and appreciated. A small humble request for you. When you use your native language if you can drop the English translation of those words much appreciated. Because I feel those words are very important because native language comes automatically with your Gut Feeling of that specific point. Thanks
Please explain how to apply on graph
How do I add this modified MACD on trading view? On trading view chart, I could find only the regular MACD version. Thanks
Hey you just click on the MACD indicator to change its settings to 12EMA and 26EMA in order to modify it.
I like to see a trend cross up when MACD is above zeroline in the histogram or...just about crossing....
I don't understand the EMA please can you explain it for me and what's it...
For swing trading which are the indicators should I use?
Indicators should be used for confirmation, do not base your trades on it.
Try simply entering all 3 MACD moving averages into a chart, (12, 26, 9) and you can see how distorted the MACD can be yet the baseline cross over will be the same. To understand the MACD you need to enter these 3 MA's.
Is "Copy Trading" a good thing for beginners? Or anyone at all? Thank You!
Well explained i will do the Home work Sir
I believe the red line at 5:49 in MACD & not 9EMA. Correct me if I am wrong
so MACD went down & crossed 9EMA
Yes you are right
Si can I use this strategy in binary trading what is the expiry time
Should avoid binary options at all costs. It’s a scam.
How to put that 9 Ema with macd
Sir i am using moving average adaptor
use it only for confirmation of trends not for trading purpose
hello bro, do you have signal channels
No, and please do not fall for anyone claiming to be us.
Is this different from super trend?
Super trends are basically the combination of moving averages
Is such a MACD indicator tool actually there ⁉️ in FYERS trading app to apply - looks like it’s better than Moving average or setting our own EMA !! Correct me if I’m wrong please I’m a student learning from few masters like you
Yea, I mean every indicator has its pros and cons. You can find MACD in your broking terminal or any of the charting platoform like TradingView
It should simply work to as a best tool to “EXIT” from a trade without applying predetermined stop losses
❤
Yea, good application🙌
MACD has two lines by default and then you add another line for 9EMA, so 3 in total. But your bottom chart only shows 2 lines. So what am I missing?
one line shows the difference between 12ema and 26 ema . And 9EMA line is the ema over macd line.

how i automate strategy
We have a program that teaches you how to automate trading strategies.
Here's the link to it: learnapp.com/advanced-courses/amibroker-strategy-development-and-algo-execution
Any indicator to identify side ways
No, like there's no specific indicator just to identify sideway market. Anyways, a simple effective way to identify if the market is going sideways is to look at the price chart, and see if the prices aren't making any higher highs and higher lows OR lower highs and lower lows. PS. Use different timeframes to identify this and you will have a much clearer picture of what the trend looks like.
@@PrateekSinghLearnApp thank you

thank you
Lot of fake signals are generated when u try to capture early reversals..it’s a trap laid out by operators for retail people
yes Sandeep
a good reference tool. but little old way
Then what's the new way
Time frame nhi btaya
the number one big no no for anyone trading with MACD is using it as a trend indicator cos it's not built that way.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Nice, but it doesn't fit for every stock, Name some of the stocks where this technique is suitable.

My mom and I make huge profit on our investment with Mrs KATHERNANN her set skills are amazing
Amazing to see another who trade with Mrs KATHERNANN , I'm currently on my 5th trade with her and my portfolio has grown tremendously. Her weekly signals are highly profitable
I invest with Mrs KATHERNANN too, she charges a 20%commission on profit made after every trading session which is fair compare to the effort she put in to make huge profits.
This is not the first time I'm hearing about Mrs KATHERNANN and her exploits in the trading world but i have no idea how to reach her.
She is active on telegram ⬇

Just by calling macd a trend indicator shows ur lack of knowledge on it!
Really!!....what all people do just for the sake of making a video!
